He never saw me before 2 week follow up appointment. I had an OK time on vacation, but as soon as I finished the prednisone, everything was back in full force I can’t swallow or eat. decreases inflammation but doesn’t solve the issue. So as soon as I started the prednisone my throat felt better and I could swallow more easily it felt like the inflammation was down. I was desperate and Since he didn’t have time to see me he said he can prescribe prednisone and antibiotics. Seriously at the time I didn’t even register this, because I was in so much pain, but as you can see it’s pretty heartless especially the only reason vacation will be ruined is because he Did not see me and provide me quality standard of care. His comment to me was “Everybody had their vacations ruined this year, so what”. I was trying to tell him that I was leaving for a 4 day family mountain trip the next day that had been planned and looked forward to for a year and thankfully wasn’t cancelled by COVID. Unfortunately for me, Wednesdays are his surgery days and he doesn’t work on Thursdays and Fridays and has no backup. I talked to his office staff and then received a very short curt return call from Dr. I wanted to be seen by Dr.Barker so he could tell me what was going on. So, I took the antibiotics but it did nothing. Barker did not have coverage for any emergency situations( or Wednesday, Thursday and Friday) I really wanted to be seen, but his schedule was full and The office staff told me he did have a partner but they do not like to see each other patients ( ?). Barker’s office to tell him about this and I was told that this was not caused by the Latera stent and that he would prescribe antibiotics. It was as if my left tonsil was in the middle of my throat instead of on the side. I figured it would get better but by Monday it was extremely painful and was blocking almost half my airway. I could barely swallow I did find it very coincidental that I had a stent put in my nose on Friday and had a sore throat the next morning. Surgery was done on a Friday, and the next morning I woke up with the worst sore throat I’ve ever had. My follow up appointment was two weeks later, on June 22. I know they're not totally realistic but I'm still using these to send to doctors to give an idea of what I hope for.I have my Latera stent put in on June 5 of 2020 at his office. I have attached more before pictures alongside edited wish-pictures. As impatient as I am, I don't think I should rush this, it's such an important decision. I was originally planning to get surgery in April 2019 but I think I'm moving it to June. I'm already messaging his assistant hoping to get a price quote. Omer's work and I'm reading good things about him. Does anyone have experience with these guys? I especially like Dr. I'm still considering him though, cause I'm sure I could explain what I wanted. He seems to shorten the nose a lot and does that really high (piggy looking) tip sometimes. The only draw back is that some of his results don't look that good to me. His assistant has been answering all my questions and also they have hotel packages which really helps as an international patient. He seems really honest, has a lot of good reviews and most importantly reviews that seem legit (I think I'm becoming an expert on recognising genuine reviews from fake ones haha). I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about. I've attached some photos and will keep taking them and posting here. But I hope breathing will be better after it's all gone. Can't wait to get my cast off and the stuff that's inside my nose? Not tampons but something hard and plastic like that seems to be attached to the inside of my nose with a stitch? I don't know what it's called. But I'm not too worried because most people seem to have the same experience and their noses turn out alright at the end. I feel like it's very high and piggy right now. I've been to hotel breakfast every day and feel like people stare a lot, I mean I'm not the prettiest sight right now haha. Room service is essential cause I don't feel that confident going out to get food. I'm staying at Volley hotel which is lovely. I mostly feel like I just have a cold with a stuffed and runny nose. There's no bleeding anymore just some clear liquid that comes out of nose sometimes. Sleeping is intermittent because I need to breathe through my mouth and my mouth gets so dry that I wake up often to drink water. The prescription pain medication I got helps a lot :) It's mostly just tight uncomfortable feeling, some dull pain and a bit of a stingy feeling. My surgery is over! It's day 2 post-op now.
